The newly revised "Management Scheme
for the Display of Roadside Non-commercial Publicity Materials"

 

At present, the Government implements the ˇ§Management Scheme for the Display of Roadside Non-commercial Publicity Materialsˇ¨ at designated roadside locations in each district. To more effectively regulate the display of roadside publicity materials (including banners, bills and posters), heighten traffic safety and improve the cityscape, the Government has recently revised the Scheme.

To tie in with the implementation of the revised Scheme, Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) staff issued warnings between 1 and 8 September, 2011 to persons who display non-commercial publicity materials on Government land without the permission of the Lands Department. Afterwards, FEHD staff have stepped up enforcement of Section 104A of the Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance, Cap. 132, including removing unauthorised non-commercial publicity materials displayed on Government land; recovering removal cost from the person who displays the materials and considering taking out prosecution against those who display the publicity materials as well as the beneficiaries of those displayed materials.
